Surely in vain the net is spread in the sight of
any bird. They lie in wait for their own blood; they lurk secretly for their
own lives.
Proverbs 1:17-18, Modern English Version (MEV)
The sad thing about all the evil plans, the traps laid by sinners, is that they are only trapping themselves and they can't even see it. They may think they are getting away with murder, but they have no sense of their own mortality or, even more important, of eternity. They simply cannot see past the ends of their own noses. Why allow ourselves to be tempted to follow fools such as these?
